State department / DoD legal counsel

<p>Does anyone know anything about these kind of careers? I am interested in foreign affairs/IR but i've always had a knack for law. I have been unable to find much or what its like to serve as counsel for a diplomatic/military organization</p>

<p>well, I am currently an intern at DoD (OSD-Policy), not in general counsel or anything but I have to deal w/ someone from OGC (general counsel) almost on a daily basis. It seems like fascinating but highly stressful work. Anyway, not sure if this helps at all, but I know OGC offers internships, although I think they're pretty much reserved for law students. But google around and you can find the info on OGC internships;; they seem ultra competitive though.</p>

<p>oh wow youre a DoD intern? is there any chance i could ask you a few questions about it via PM?</p>
